[Solved]pacman -Syu generates "glib2-2.26.1-1-x86_64.... is corrupted"

Just ran pacman -Syu after about 5 weeks of not upgrading and pacman generates the error:

glib2-2.26.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted. Delete it (Y or n)?.

Choosing either y or n results in an upgrade failure. What do I do in this situation?

Can't you force the re-download and install?

Yeah ok, I did a "clyde -Scc @@ clyde -Syyu" and that redid everything and it worked the second time around.
